Field, petrographical and geochemical data collected from Asbian and Brigantian strata from the Derbyshire Platform, UK. Derbyshire Platform, ranging from Castleton (SK15106 83079) - Buxton (SK 05781 73182) - Matlock Bath (SK 29454 57924) / Wirksworth (SK28696 53997) area Data includes: Cavern size and morphometrics Transmitted light, cathodoluminescence and SEM images of calcite cements filling hypogene voids Geochemical data (stable and clumped isotopes, trace element concentrations) of calcite cements filling hypogene voids Data collected as part of NERC project NE/W000970/1, Hypogene karst: genesis and implications to optimisation of low enthalpy energy resources.

These data comprise the physiology-based measurements made on the cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. and Synechococcus sp., the pennate diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum, and the coccolithophore Emiliana huxleyi. A variety of experimental manipulations were carried out in order to investigate the mechanisms underlying thermally-induced physiological responses and various physiological traits were characterised.
